Question
In our town there is a woman who is a 'home made' 'aalimah'. She treats her husband with arrogance and has branded him a kaafir. The husband is a good person. The elders of the town advised him to give her Talaaq to end her tyranny. Now after he has issued Talaaq, she issues her own fatwa that the marriage is still valid. Is she allowed to stay with him?
Answer
It seems that this home made jaahilah is somewhat insane. Now that the man has issued Talaaq, she has no right of imposing herself and proclaiming the marriage valid. And, even if she shouts a thousand times that the marriage is valid, her stupid outpouring will not alter the reality of the Talaaq issued by the husband.
